KMO-Portefeuille

Kappa Data recently became a recognized Service Provider of the SME portfolio-initiative (better known as “KMO Portefeuille”). Which means that all courses organized by Kappa Data qualify for subsidies by the Flemish Government. If your headquarters is located in the Flemish Region, and you meet all the criteria, you can request up to 40% of subsidies. Please visit the official website (http://www.vlaio.be/artikel/komt-mijn-onderneming-aanmerking-voor-de-subsidie) to check if your company is eligible.
